Ethe stepped back and viewed the bluff critically. Hmmm, no, this one wasn't right either. She sighed softly and moved on. For the last couple days she'd been wandering around the forest trying to find a good spot to settle. Around her neck was a vine necklace, from which swung little leaf packets that she had painstakingly crafted. Each packet contained dozens of seeds from particularly gorgeous climbing plants that she'd come across in her wanderings. These seeds were the reason for her picky home selection. If Ethe had to dig out her dwelling with her own paws that was fine, but the spot had to be stable enough for her to do so or the thing would cave in on her. What she wanted was somewhere with a rough face, some large craggy rocks or something similar, so that her plants would have something to grow on. Once they got started she could build makeshift trellis' to guide the growth how she wanted, but they had to be able to grow over her home to start with. It was proving to be a difficult task, but as long as it didn't take more than a year Ethe was willing to wait to find the perfect place to plant her seeds. As she walked Ethe savored the occasional warm shaft of sunlight that pierced through the green canopy, smiling as she listened to jovial birdsong and the rustlings of forest creatures going about their day. A great content filled her and swelled up until she couldn't contain her. She opened her mouth and sang while she talked, her cheerful soprano mingling with the birdsong.

As soon as Ethe finished her song she launched into another, this time a lively sea shanty she'd picked up from some foxes that lived by the ocean. "As I was a-walkin’ down Paradise Street, To me! Way, hey, blow the man down A pretty young damsel I chanced for to meet Give me some time to blow the man down"
The song was a decent length, not too long or too short. She giggled once she finished, thinking about how much her parents would disapprove if they'd heard what she was singing. All sea shanties seemed a little inappropriate, but they were just so much fun to sing! Ethe paused in a good beam of sunlight, soaking up the warmth while she wracked her brain for another favorite. Stretching luxuriously in the heat and feeling her relief in pliable muscles and popping joints, she piped out the beginnings of a third and started forward again. ((Here's the full song Ethe was singing [x]))
